When Wen Guiyun examined Yue Zhao earlier, he already discovered that the Spiritual Power inside Yue Zhao had reached a critical point, with the possibility of breaking through to the Half-step Immortal Rank at any mont. He speculated that it might be related to Yue Zhao consuming the Nine Revolutions Reincarnation Elixir, since it contained so many precious herbs, its Spiritual Power was indeed strong.
Yue Zhao was startled upon hearing this and hurriedly checked his own physical condition. He found that it was indeed as Wen Guiyun had described, with a potential breakthrough to the Half-step Immortal Rank at any ti. He was sowhat surprised, then he rembered consuming the elixir and relaxed, believing it to be related.
"What Master has said is true, I will prepare well." He looked at Wen Guiyun and said.
"Then, Second Senior Brother, you should rest well first, we’ll be heading back now." Gu Qingqing stood up and said to Yue Zhao.
Si Lin and the others also got up one after another and bid farewell to Yue Zhao.
Understanding his condition, Yue Zhao did not try to push himself and nodded, then watched them leave.
Upon leaving, Si Lin and the others were in a completely different mood from when they ca. Initially, they were uncertain whether the Nine Revolutions Reincarnation Elixir could cure Yue Zhao, feeling both excited and anxious. But as they left, Yue Zhao had already awakened and was in good health, making them happy as well.
Lately, everyone had been on edge because of Yue Zhao’s situation. Now, having relaxed, they didn’t gather together again but returned to their respective courtyards to rest properly.
Gu Qingqing and Jun Wu returned to her courtyard together and sat in a pavilion. Gu Qingqing was still emotionally stirred, while Jun Wu remained silent, quietly accompanying her.
Originally, they had set out together on a journey, but returned upon hearing news of Yue Zhao’s injury. Now that Yue Zhao had recovered, both Gu Qingqing and Jun Wu seed reluctant to resu their journey.
Gu Qingqing felt that staying with Yue Zhao and the others was more important due to his situation, rather than going on a journey. anwhile, Jun Wu was contemplating how he could persuade Gu Qingqing to return to his domain, as he disliked her attention always being on others.
The two sat in the courtyard for a while, chatted for a bit, and then returned to their respective rooms.
Jun Wu consistently pondered on how to bring Gu Qingqing back. Finally, he decided to send a sound transmission to Jun Yutian, asking if he had any good ideas.
"Son, isn’t it simple to bring soone back? Just get married!" Jun Yutian had just finished dealing with affairs of the Yunlan Sacred Land, about to find his wife to rest for a bit, when he received Jun Wu’s transmission. Amused, he replied without hesitation.
Jun Wu was stunned when he received the ssage and saw the words "get married," his ears turning slightly red.
Marriage, what a beautiful thing! How could Jun Wu not have thought of this?
However, he had waited so long for Gu Qingqing, and she had only just agreed to be with him. Her love for him was not particularly deep, so he dared not offer an overly hasty proposal for fear of rejection.
Yet in his heart, he longed for Gu Qingqing to beco his, to bear his mark, to co and go with him. Just the thought of it made him excited beyond asure.
Thankfully, he hadn’t lost his reason. After calming down, he began seriously considering the feasibility of the matter.
anwhile, Gu Qingqing was completely unaware that soone was already contemplating marriage with her!
...
Three days after Yue Zhao woke, he successfully broke through to the Half-step Immortal Rank, becoming the fourth among Gu Qingqing’s senior and junior brothers to do so. Now only Gu Qingqing and Mu Chen had yet to reach the Half-step Immortal Rank.
Mu Chen, due to concocting the Nine Revolutions Reincarnation Elixir, gained a deeper understanding of the Alchemy Dao and had already touched the threshold of the Half-step Immortal Rank. After Yue Zhao’s promotion, he started seclusion to prepare for his breakthrough.
As for Gu Qingqing, being still young, she hadn’t been in the ninth rank for long. Wen Guiyun and the others were not particularly anxious for her to advance, fearing an unstable mindset if she progressed too quickly, so they didn’t pressure her.
Gu Qingqing herself maintained a very calm mindset, not in a hurry to advance. Given her age, her cultivation was already considered top-notch.
Jun Wu, with his Innate Daoist Body, had already touched the threshold of the Half-step Immortal Rank, and crossing it was only a matter of ti. This physique made even the so-called chosen ones like Si Lin marvel!
By now, Si Lin and the others had beco more accepting of Gu Qingqing and Jun Wu being together and had a much better attitude towards Jun Wu. With Jun Wu’s obvious care for Gu Qingqing, anyone with eyes could see. Besides Jun Wu, even Si Lin admitted there was no one else who would treat Gu Qingqing so well, so they turned a blind eye to Jun Wu constantly following Gu Qingqing.
Jun Wu felt much from this, but as long as he could be with Gu Qingqing, he wouldn’t mind too much.
After he decided that he wanted to marry Gu Qingqing, Jun Wu began contemplating how to make it happen. Besides getting Gu Qingqing’s consent, he needed Wen Guiyun’s approval, as marriage ultimately required the blessing of parents and matchmakers for it to be well-founded and legitimate.
So, on a lovely sunny afternoon, Lingxi Sacred Land welcod a noble guest — the Saint Master Jun Yutian of the Yunlan Sacred Land, one of the Three Great Sacred Lands.
"Brother Jun, why have you suddenly co to Lingxi Sacred Land? Is it to bring Jun Wu back?" Wen Guiyun personally poured Jun Yutian a cup of tea, asking in puzzlent.
Jun Yutian glanced around, seeing only he and Wen Guiyun were in the flower hall. Hesitating, he said, "I haven’t seen you in a while, so I thought I’d co and visit you."
He picked up the teacup, took a sip to hide his slightly awkward expression.
Wen Guiyun had known Jun Yutian for so many years, how could he not know what kind of person he was? Saying he ca to see him, Wen Guiyun didn’t believe a word of it. He looked at Jun Yutian, smiling knowingly, "Alright, whatever it is, just say it. When did you beco so hesitant? This isn’t like you!"
Though Jun Yutian was a composed person outside, he couldn’t handle Wen Guiyun’s goading and spilled his purpose, "I’m here to propose marriage for my son!"
